  • The Power Of My Words

    The Power Of My Words
    Nov 4 2024
    Welcome to the very first long-form episode of My Happy Ass Life! Today, I'm excited to share this journey of growth in mind, body, and spirit. In this debut episode, I discuss why and how we’re moving from daily affirmations to this extended podcast format. We explore how life's transitions call for changes in our routines and how stepping out of the comfort zone leads to more profound transformation.

    I share stories from my life, from standing in the bathtub at age six giving motivational speeches (inspired by Prowl Shampoo, no less!) to finding solace in affirmations as a child growing up in an alcoholic home. We also tackle some big concepts—like the transformative power of forgiveness, gratitude, and learning to let go of limiting beliefs that hold us back. Through humor, vulnerability, and honesty, this episode is about understanding how every moment, even the challenging ones, can shape us into our happiest selves.

    We also discuss why words matter. Words have the power to build, to heal, and to inspire. Whether it’s "praise at the pump" while filling up on gas or choosing affirmations that nurture our spirits, this episode reminds us all that the narratives we create for ourselves can shape our reality.

    Key Highlights:
    [03:00] The origin of daily affirmations and how My Happy Ass Life began.
    [06:30] Childhood moments that inspired the love for motivational speaking.
    [12:00] Growing up in a tumultuous home and finding refuge in books and affirmations.
    [15:00] Praise at the Pump: Turning mundane tasks into moments of gratitude.
    [22:00] The immense power of forgiveness—how it’s for you more than anyone else.
    [28:00] Why a gracious spirit can transform your interactions, even on tough days.
    [33:00] Taking care of our bodies, embracing imperfections, and loving the skin we’re in.
    [42:00] Mishaps and "not-haps": How embracing our mistakes helps us grow.
    [47:00] The magic of Mondays and why embracing the "do-over" is powerful.
    [53:00] The sheer power of words: Choosing language that heals and inspires.

  • Redefining Stregth With Dr. Jenn Burg

    Redefining Stregth With Dr. Jenn Burg
    Nov 4 2024
    What if the strength you’ve always sought is actually what’s keeping you stuck? Imagine if real growth means letting go of what feels comfortable and embracing the uncertainty that comes with change. In this first episode of Season 4, I sit down with my amazing coach, Dr. Jenn Burg, to talk about what strength really means.

    We talk about everything from how to make real changes in our daily habits, like starting each morning with gratitude, to pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zones, such as taking on new challenges at work or in our personal lives. We also share the journey of switching from a daily podcast to a weekly one, and why that matters for mental health. Plus, we talk about the importance of asking for help, why it can be so difficult, and how it can lead to unexpected growth.

    We also discuss the popular GLP-1 medications, their pros and cons, and how to think about health and weight management in a healthy, balanced way. If you’re ready to discover what true strength means, focus on what really matters, and embrace a more meaningful life, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.

    Key Highlights:
    [01:00] Jenn’s career changes after Hurricane Michael.
    [03:00] How Jenn's coaching transformed more than just my fitness journey.
    [06:00] The challenge of asking for help as a leader.
    [08:00] Reevaluating my priorities for better self-care.
    [10:00] Adjusting my podcast schedule for more balance.
    [16:00] Gaining sponsorships and understanding my self-worth.
    [20:00] Learning when it's time to slow down.
    [30:00] Thoughts on GLP-1 medications and managing weight.
    [42:00] Growing through the struggles I face.
    [50:00] Tuning in and really listening to my body.
    [57:00] Finding joy in the challenging moments.
